Definitions

  • the invention relates to shuttle peptides that penetrate the cell membrane.
  • Apoptosis is a genetically programmed cell death and its deregulation is associated among other pathologies, with cancer. While apoptosis is known to rely on the Bcl-2 family members and caspases, recent data suggested that two major families of serine/threonine phosphatases, PP1 and PP2A, are key actors involved in cell life or cell death decision.
  • the Ser/Thre phosphatase PP2A has been implicated in both, induction and prevention of apoptosis, pointing to a complex interplay of phosphatase actions.
  • Several phosphatases have recently become attractive targets for the treatment of a variety of diseases, including cancers. However, the only clinical drugs targeting a phosphatase are the immunosuppressive cyclosporine A and FK506.
  • CPP Cell penetrating peptides
  • Tat Several CPP have been identified such as Tat, antennapedia, or SHV1 VP22. These peptides can cross the cell membrane and reach the cytoplasm and/or the nucleus. Penetrating peptides interacting with PP1/PP2A proteins were designed. This approach, named " Drug Phosphatase Technology" (DPT), was described in Guergnon et al, 2006 and International patent applications WO2003/011898 and WO2004/011595 .
  • DPT-C9h A pro-apoptotic peptide, called DPT-C9h, that specifically deregulates the interaction between caspase-9 and PP2A, used this penetrating sequence (international patent application WO2010/112471 ).

  • This peptide induces apoptosis in human cell lines. In addition, it has a specific apoptotic effect only in tumoral B cells isolated from chronic lymphocityc leukemia patients without effect on healthy cells. In addition, the peptide induces important reduction in the size of tumor when injected in mice bearing human breast cancer xenograft.
  • DPT-C9 consists of sequence VKKKKIK R EIKI-YVETLDDIFEQWAHSEDL (SEQ ID NO:6), where VKKKKIKREIKI (SEQ ID NO:7) is the penetrating peptide.
  • the inventors have shown that a mutation in the penetrating peptide dramatically increases the stability of the whole peptide, while maintaining its properties, in particular its ability to induce apoptosis.
  • a mutation of the arginine residue in the penetrating peptide prevents cleavage from proteases.
  • the inventors have thus designed peptides comprising the following amino acid sequence (I): X 1 -KKKIK- ⁇ -EI-X 2 -X 3 (I) (SEQ ID NO:1) wherein X 1 is vacant, is a lysine residue, or valine-lysine; X 2 is vacant, is a lysine residue, or lysine-isoleucine; X 3 is vacant or is an amino acid sequence of 1 to 4 amino acids; and ⁇ is an amino acid residue that is different from arginine,.

  • Amino acids with similar properties are well known in the art. For example, arginine, histidine and lysine are hydrophilic-basic amino acids and may be interchangeable. Similarly, isoleucine, a hydrophobic amino acid, may be replaced with leucine, methionine or valine.
